I have several tables from Saleforce database and I want to create a field in one of these tables using a field from another table. To do this, I created the relationship between these two tables in Model and this relationship is active and I can see it there.
But when I want to create the new field (column), within Account table cannot find Event table for connection.
Is there any other steps I should take to see the relationship?

Hi, @Homaa
You can try the following methods.
Sample data:
1. Add a calculated column to the Account table.
Column:
Event value =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( Event[Value] ),
FILTER ( Event, [AccountID] = EARLIER ( Account[ID] ) )
)
Result:
2. On this basis, the SWITCH function is used.
Column = SWITCH(TRUE(),
[Event value]>50,"A",
[Event value]>20,"B",
"C")
Result:

The function RELATEDTABLE allows you to access the table on the many side of a one-to-many relationship. It returns a table of values, so you'll need to use an aggregate function like MAX.
